many scanners look for open proxies on port 3128 and 8080.

Thank you everyone for your help. The dedicated server company

reported to me that "we are blocking outgoing connections on
tcp/3128 port for security reasons".
Does this mean that they are a "squid unfriendly" company? Is there
any reason to block that port,
and not other ports associated with proxy servers??
Hi Reid,
I don't understand how blocking connections on port 3128 will
provide your hosting company any security.
Why don't you request your hosting company to open up port 3128 for
your server? If nothing works, then simple run your proxy server in
a different port.
Thanking you...
Thank you all again, I appreciate the help with troubleshooting.
